We are all salt of the earth. Seniors definitely fit in this category because we can add flavor to our own lives while enriching the lives of our families. Plan to be a part of this vibrant senior group. Hope to see you whenever you can make an event geared especially to you. Each month we will sponsor an event that will rotate with Learn and Grow, Service and Social.

Thursday, February 4, 10 a.m.
February is Black History Month and SALT (senior adult group) will read and discuss several offerings and share personal viewpoints. The program will require some “homework” so you might want to begin now to prepare. This is an important topic and one which our church has been thinking about, especially since May of last year. On the church website you can find an extensive list of books and resources available: Race & Justice Resources
Read and view anything you think might be appropriate for our discussion, but here are the 3 things we would like you to look at before our meeting:
1 “Why We Have Black History Month and Not White History Month” given by Kat Blaque. YouTube (7.52 minutes)
2 “Slavery-Crash Course in U.S. History #13", given by John Green. It’s sort of quirky and light hearted but that, in no way, means we don’t take slavery very seriously. It’s just a short overview of slavery in our country. Indeed, as we will see, slavery has shaped the way America has grown because of the original slaves brought to this county.
3 The 1619 Project published by the NY Times. Also, here is one document from one section of that many faceted publication.
